Israeli troops massed at the border today as Gaza's death toll hit at least 300 following fresh Israeli air strikes overnight. Bombs decimated a mosque and family home—reportedly killing 5 children—as well as a university Israeli officials said contained explosives labs that aid Hamas' insurgency, CNN reports. Israeli leaders pledged to continue fighting until Hamas relents, in defiance of the UN. Both sides blame the other for striking first.

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert made plans to activate 7,000 Israeli reservists as ground troops and tanks moved toward Gaza yesterday. Hamas has reportedly launched 110 rockets since Saturday when the Israeli assault began. Black smoke fills the streets of Gaza, abandoned except for ambulances rushing the wounded to jam-packed, unequipped hospitals. Israel has allowed in some medical and food supplies.

Israel should destroy the Hamas group and I don’t believe in these rallies around the world, this people are just hypocrites, you now why? Where are these so called rallies when the Arab commits suicide bombing? Or do unjust justice, did they experience working in Arab countries? I don’t think so and for sure they really don’t know the mind of this people or what kind of human are they, when the 9/11 tragedy happen, what this people (Arab) shout? Did they condemn it? I’m not saying this good for them (Palestine) I pity the civilians dying in this crazy war, but the thing is, they (Palestine) should be responsible for all their action, they throw a bullet for sure Israel will retaliate, don’t cry to the world for what you did…pay the price..
